We care about you — and your things.
Whether it is residential, commercial or corporate relocation, moving is not an easy task at all. It can be messy, chaotic and one of the most stressful events of your life. But learning some helpful relocation and shifting tips can make your move easy and simple. Here are helpful tips by Idea World Wide packers and movers, to turn your relocation into an easy going and smooth affair.
Before you start
Have required packing and moving supplies handy well before you begin packing your belongings and household effects. It is recommended that you use good quality packing supplies and materials like sturdy boxes of different sizes, bubble wraps, wrapping papers, padding supplies, old newspapers, blank newsprint papers, permanent markers, scissors, knives, heavy duty packaging tapes, tape measures, labeling stickers, etc.
These things matter
You must make use of supreme quality sturdy cartons, boxes and containers that can be secured tightly and firmly. Use specific boxes for specific items, such as wardrobe boxes for garments, dish-pack boxes for dishes & dishware, and specific containers for fragile items. It is advisable to use original packing supplies and boxes to pack audio-video materials, electronic items, electrical items, home appliances and kitchen appliances, if possible. If you do not have original packing supplies, consult professional packers and movers who can recommend the required supplies.
Grouping of goods
Pack household items and effects on a room by room basis — one room at a time. Ensure the weight of each box is one you can lift conveniently; avoid loading more than 20 kg in a single box or carton. Place heavier items first and lighter ones later. Wrap items carefully and use lots of padding and cushioning to ensure the safety of belongings inside the boxes. Place breakables or fragile items correctly in the box. Close the top of boxes and seal with good quality heavy duty packaging tape to prevent damage and make stacking easier. Label each box with an appropriate tag or color-code system.
Before you leave
Once you have packed all your stuff, it’s time to leave. You will load all the cartons and drums in the carrier / truck to take them to the destination. Loading and placing the items in the proper place is also important: keep fragile items at the top of all goods, try to use the maximum space of the container / trailer, and keep the heaviest items at the bottom.
Choose an experienced moving company
Always consider choosing an experienced moving company which is local to your city. Choosing an experienced moving company eliminates the stress and results in a smooth relocation. Check if the moving company is licensed and insured, as there are lots of moving companies which are not genuine.
Sign an agreement with the moving company
It is advisable that you sign a written agreement with the moving company which should have the moving price, pickup and delivery dates and other legal formalities such as damages incurred during transportation. This will save you a lot of stress, which is a very common issue in long distance moves.
Remove everything that is of no use to you
Once you know when you intend to move, start eliminating trash from your stuff. Since this work is very hectic, do everything in bits and at your own pace within the specified timeline.
Prepare an inventory of items to be shipped
Idea World Wide always prepares an inventory of items to be shipped, but it is advisable to prepare an inventory yourself and match it with the moving company if needed.
Consider crating of high value items
High value items such as art pieces, electronic items and pianos need special protection. Consider packing your high value items in wooden crates for additional safety.
Inspection of moving truck
Inspect the moving truck brought by the moving company — check it is clean and maintained. The moving trucks of Idea World Wide packers and movers are equipped with additional harnesses and padding for extra safety of shipped goods.
Unpacking at destination
Ask the moving company, like Idea World Wide packers and movers, to do the unpacking and placement of items at the specified area. Also ask the moving company to take away all the trash of packing (you should have this mentioned in the agreement).
